[Qt-creator] Mouse cursor disappearing

[Portale Alessandro]

This is the (collection of) bug(s)
    https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTCREATORBUG-11168

As I understood the fix did not make it into 3.1, but rather into the upcoming 3.2.

Br,
Alessandro

Subject: Re: [Qt-creator] Mouse cursor disappearing

This is a known bug and has been talked about before. I see this on OS X all the time. If you "right click" somewhere in the editor you can get your cursor back but this becomes quite annoying. Quitting Creator and relaunching will fix it for a while then it comes back. I don't remember the bug number but I know this has been discussed on this list before.

Thanks
Mike Jackson
